Strange New Message

After clicking back and forth as suggested between music and iphone in itunes for almost 3 hours, it finally worked, and I am up and running. However, through out the whole process, I keep getting this message over and over: "AppleMobileDeviceHelper has stopped working". It just keeps popping up and will not stop. It was on going during the upgrade process, and now that I have upgraded and itunes is accessible again, it still keeps poppinb up. Any ideas of how I can get this message to stop popping up?
By the way, it synched everything except my music and movies. Those were wiped clean. It's okay, because I didn't have that much on my iphone as I have an ipod. Did this happen to anyone else?

is anyone experiencing this problem?

Strange New Console Messages _spotlight: audit warning: expired /var/audit/ {string of numbers}

For several days I have been having difficulties having the MacBook Pro (Lion) complete shutdowns. Eventually I have to hard reset it.
On reboot almost always Spotlight starts building its index again. (I even gave it 2 full days once in case the indexing not completing was the issue but the laptop had just stayed hung). Disk Utility and even the otherwise pathetic Tech Tools Pro 6 report no errors in directories or structures,
Today, I just noticed a strange new series of messages, while I was not using the computer all day and no apps were running....
They are shown below (I narrowed the search to Spotlight in Console)

Any thoughts on what these are all about and how to get rid of these problems?
Thanks and Happy New Year.

To the best of my knowledge, the CaptiveNetworkSupport daemon has to do with WiFi and networking.
Some things to try:
Visit ~/Library/Caches <–Trash everything in this folder (it will rebuild after reboot)
Reboot your Mac. | Empty the Trash. | Reboot your Mac.
You cannot empty the trash until after you reboot because the files are still in use. When you reboot the second time, after you have emptied the trash, it is to ensure that none of the files are in use, and the new caches are rebuilt successfully. You may notice it's a little slow at first, that is because it is rebuilding the caches.
Rebuild the Spotlight Index.
This is simple. Open up Spotlight in System Prefs, drag your Mac HD into the Privacy section, then remove it. It rebuilds the spotlight database.
Repair Disk Permissions for good measure as well.
See if that helps anything.

A very new and strange warning message from my iPhone

I am getting a very new and strange warning message on my iPhone. The phone will repeatedly - even when sitting idle - flash a message that states, "This accessory not made to work with iPhone. Would you like to turn on Airplane Mode to reduce audio interference ... you will not be able to make or receive calls?"
This message started to flash up on my iPhone after I installed Leopard yesterday evening (11/15/07). I just updated my iTunes software today so I have iTunes 7.5 (19) and my iPhone software version is 1.1.2. Finally, I am not trying to hack my iPhone since I ain't smart enough to do so and, even if I were, I wouldn't want to have a dead phone on my hands.
Any suggestions or thoughts? Thanks.

Charles
I think my first instinct would be to try a Reset of the iPhone, if that doesn't improve things then try a Restore from within iTunes BUT.....
I would also wait awhile and see in anyone else weighs in with other suggestions first.
Good luck

Strange problem when opening new message.

I have a rather annoying problem when I open a newly received SMS from a particular contact (lets call him Bill).
When I open the new message from Bill, either by swiping to unlock or touching a banner message at the top of the screen. Instead to being shown the message itself, I will automatically be taken to the 'start new message' screen with none of our message history (i.e. as if I am starting to type an entirely new message to Bill)
I can then cancel this and return to myself and Bill's normal message stream.
Any ideas how to get around this annoyance? Thank you.

I think you have 2 ways to go here. Figure out what html is from wherever weblogic gets it, meaning you have to delve into the docs, snoop
around in directories and find what it must be sending (This is going to be unavoidable if you are going to change what weblogic is doing.
Sooner or later you have to try to figure out where it gets this stuff from)
or
you can experimentally snoop on your url with a tool like wget or curl. These are fundamental web tools.
The latter is always a useful thing to be able to do. (you need to formulate a query to get the content-type).
Whoever managed to get weblogic to serve any files in the first place probably can figure this out.

Mail.app stopped downloading new messages from pop3

Hello,
I met this on both the latest Tiger and Panther: came after two weeks away and had no new mail. Strange. The Mail.app logins to pop3 server, sends a password, looks for the new messages, and that's all. Nothing is downloaded.
When I checked the mail via web browser, I had found about 600 messages there - most of them just a spam, as usual.
Whatever I tried (permissions, delete and create account, rebuild...) nothing helped.
BUT.
When I *manually deleted* some messages (via web browser), Mail.app started downloading. For me it looks like there is some message number limit, about 500 messages, and if there are more messages on the server, nothing is downloaded. I believe it's a bug - at least some error message should appear.

By the way, my Mail App is version 5.3

Strange error message when I tried to use the "collaborate" function under "File"

Has anyone else met this before? : I am trying to share my project with my team members. Tried File -> Collaborate and then try three options under it. Non e of them works. It asks for your Adobe ID in order to sign in and upload. However, every time I typed in my Adobe ID and password, it gave me strange error messages. The first time it says: User has not verified email address yet. I have been using this Adobe ID since 2008 or 2009 and of course I have verified my email address. But to make sure, I went back to my email box and search for emails about Adobe ID verification but I didn't find any (I never delete emails such as this).
Then I tried to register a new Adobe ID. This time when I tried to singn in with the new Adobe ID, it will either say "Network may not be available" (which is not true because I am able to surf on the Internet at the same time), or it says "User has not accepted user condition/agreement".
I feel so frustrated because I feel this is definitely not my mistake which caused the failure of log in.
Hope someone can tell me what the reason is and how to fix it though.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Lilybiri,
Thanks for your quick response. I followed your suggestion and verified my Adobe ID on acrobat.com.
Now I can enter the collaborate function. However, everytime when I tried to send it to myself (for test purpose) I got another error message "You need to enter a valid emaill address". I saw someone else on this forum has met the same problem. Do you have any suggestion on what is the possible reason for this to happen?
Again, thanks for the fast response. You have been helping me and other ppl so much.

After 31.1.2 update cannot view new messages in pane or separate window

Old messages before today appear, but any message wuht todays date does not appe, the view pane and the message window are blank. How can I move back to previous version until this is fixed?

Update: message sent from Mozilla to confirm this new message does appear, so it seems that messages received today 9/26 that were sent before Thunderbird updated to 31.1.2, are not viewable. The header appears but not the message itself. Messages created before midnight are appearing, this is most strange. Maybe the messages from today will appear after midnight.

Pc suite 7.0.8.2 no new messages after unicode SMS...

I was using 7.0.8.2 on XP quite happily until a strange problem appeared. after receiving a multipart unicode SMS on my 6300, pc suite was no longer aware of any new messages - i.e. when I look at the "inbox", it had every message up to the unicode (chinese) message, but nothing newer than that. that makes the program no longer useful for me. I did not have this problem with any of the previous versions of pc suite. (I am a long-time user).
has anyone else had this problem?

You can try to move that unicode SMS to SIM card.

Black box or line appears in New Message when forwarding MS Word or PDF doc

Strange thing...
Ever since I formatted and rebuilt my iMac and MacBook Pro last week with Snow Leopard, Mac Mail is acting funny. When I forward a document from MS Word or Acrobat Reader, I get a large black box or black line in the New Message line which wipes out my signature. I have a screen shot but I don't see a way to post it with my inquiry.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

I am experiencing the same problem. It does not happen when I drag a PDF from Finder into a new Mail message. It does happen, though, when I try to "Mail Selected PDF Document" from Preview. The problem didn't start until I installed Safari 5.
My workaround for right now when I see the black box in Mail is to: select all, cut, hit delete (this gets rid of the last strip of black), then paste. This re-places the PDF without any kind of black box.
Fingers are crossed that this gets fixed sooner rather than later....

Mail can't create a new message window ...?

Hi,
Mail.app on my machine has been having a strange issue the past few days. Twice now, it has lost the ability to create a new message editing window.
If I click the new message button, or select "New Message" from the file menu, or click the "Reply" button on an existing message, etc. but no new message window ever appears. Quitting Mail.app and restarting, all the new message windows suddenly appear and everything is fine again ... until the next time.
Anyone else ever had Mail.app lose the ability to create new message editing windows like this?
Machine: Powerbook G4 15" (Oct 2005, 1.67GHz)
OS: 10.5.8
Mail: 3.6 (936)

Thanks!

Trying to update my Itunes software, now it does not want to work at all, givin strange error messages.

Trying to update my Itunes software, now it does not want to work at all, givin strange error messages.
First, when trying to sync ipod touch to Itunes, nothing happened. After that, Itunes suggested downloading and installing updates but now updates will not finish installation correctly and launch error messages. Any ideas?
TKS !

These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 800736B3s, or a different error code? If they're different, what codes are you getting in Windows Update?

TAB order suddenly changed in new message window

One of my clients' TAB order for new messages is not working properly. Right now, after she writes the subject title and hits TAB, it DOES NOT tab to the message body, where it did last week (and how mine works) but TABS through all the items she has below the subject, such as the config drop-down, the from account and the signature drop-down.
There is another post in this forum, but I couldn't find it again to reference and post to it. She said she hasn't installed anything or messed with any settings. She always seems to have these strange bugs happen. Anyway, I can replicate it or fix it in any way. I've tried repairing permissions, etc. but it still persists.
If anyone has any info on what this could be, please post it. I would appreciate it very much.

Go to System Preferences - Keyboard.
On the very bottom, make sure that "All controls" is not selected. Choose "Text boxes and lists only".

New Message Icon - Can't find the messages! :)

Okay so I've had my BlackBerry Curve 8310 for a week now. Just been tooling around with it to learn how it works on my own. Today I was trying to register the BIS to log into my email account to create a filter to stop sending my Gmail Sent mail back to my phone (so annoying). Anyway, Tried registering as a new user via PC. I entered my PIN and IMEI and it told me that an account already existed for that PIN. I thought that was strange, I hadn't registered before? SO just out of curiousity I clicked on the 'forgot my password' link and had it sent to my phone. I see an icon saying I have a new messge however I cannot FIND the message. Thought I did something stupid or wrong so I clicked resend for the password and again I see now I have two and then three new messages (third time is supposed to be the charm right?) on the icon but can't find these messages! I looked in SMS/MMS folder, looked in Gmail and BlackBerry mail folders but still cannot locate these messages! Where the heck did they go??
BTW I finally registered with the BIS through my phone and was able to complete it there and then logged onto my PC and created the filter I wanted. So I'm cool with that. I just need to get that stupid new message icon off my phone. Dunno if it helps but when I get new emails, the number on the message icon increases, so it must be something to do with email..?
Please Help!

Mail icons not showing in new message

When I create a new message in Mail there are no icons at the top just text. Is there a way to change it back to displaying both? What is strange is that otherwise (when I reply for instance or in the Toolbar) both icon and text are there.

You can customize the defaults for new mail messages:

and the top right corner has a clear oval, click that to show the icons.
